Private Investigator Daniel Hawthorne and the writer Anthony Horowitz have been invited to a literary festival on the island of Alderney to talk about their new book . . .
Very soon they discover that dark forces are at work.
Alderney is in turmoil over a planned power line that will cut through it, desecrating a war cemetery and turning neighbour against neighbour.
And the visiting authors seem to be harbouring any number of unpleasant secrets.
When the festival s wealthy sponsor is found brutally murdered, Alderney goes into lockdown and Hawthorne knows he doesn t have to look too far for suspects. There s no escape. The killer is still on the island.
And there s about to be a second death . . .
